My swimsuit advice is for the full figured lady.  I know a lot of you wouldn’t be caught dead at a public pool or water park. Well, I say ladies you can look good and have fun in the water at the same time. It’s all in the attitude this goes for when your just out and about, on the job, or visting your child’s school etc. Hold your head up high and walk straight if ever one see’s you that confidence it just makes you glow. Even if your not confident just try it sometime and you will notice a difference in your mood, and you might even get some looks  “like who is she” LOL you know what I mean. With that being said I think the best look for pool side or in the pool for women with curves are swimsuits with a skirt or a tankini with a skirt. It hides the hips and the cellulite. Also, I have to say that if you are comfortable with a one piece that shows your hips go for it. I just know that a cute flirty skirt can look really good with also hiding “flaws”. My other suggestion is to look for swimsuits or swim seperates that are sold are if there is a print the print should be a minimum of two colors in the print. My other suggestion to wear with your swimsuit besides your cute cover up is sunscreen. Everyone should wear sunscreen year round, but especially when your going to be outside for prolonged periods of time. You should have an SPF of 30 or higher. EVERYONE can get sun cancer, and 1 million cases of skin cancer are diagnosed in the United States alone every year. So remember wear your sunscreen. 

I have some pictures of some pretty cute swimwear. The companies are Fashion bug, Lane bryant, and One stop plus.  I tried to pick out things that are cute and not too pricey, because I have seen other fashion blogs that put up expensive stuff. I’m thinking to myself the average person can’t afford to pay $200 and over for shoes, come on! I’ll save the expensive stuff for my dream post, which I already have ideas on, but for now let’s deal with reality shall we?

Okay this is from Lane Bryant and yes it doesn’t have a flirty skirt, but it still camoflages the hips nicely. Plus, I love, love, love retro swimsuits. This suit is all things to all people for top heavy women you can show off without showing too much, and for women with less top going on you have the padded bra to fill you out. Time less suit, great investment!

This black pair is stunning, still a classic look like the first swimsuit, but it’s going to make a big impact on how it looks with your curves. The little slit on the side of the skirt looks like it would be comfortable to walk around in too.  With a top heavy gal I would make sure I’m getting the right size with this one.

This beauty is around a hundred dollars I think, but one stop always has coupons and their stuff goes on clearance pretty quickly. This one is perfect if you don’t want to show too much cleavage plus camoflaging the hips. I don’t think I would reccomend this one to my less than top heavy women, it will probably be covering too much making you look like you have nothing there.

The black romper cover up is gawgeous, remember ladies if you wear this one  by it self please have on a good bra that fits so that you don’t come undone.  The cover up with the v-neck is so perfect for the pool if your not by the pool and want to wear this one out and about, you could rock this with capri leggings and a tank underneath.  The last swimsuit picture I have here is for my ladies who are not top heavy, but have hips you want to cover. This swimsuit is so cute with the tie at the bustline.

 Hairstyles

 I love looking at Hairstyles. It’s amazing what you can do with hair, and what a difference they can make in a person’s apperance. First off let me say I am not the biggest fan of long hair on a man, and I especially don’t like when a man is bald in the front and growing long hair in the back. I am also not a big advocate for relaxers and weaves in African American women hair. Okay, I know there a lots of men with long hair that’s their choice I’m not going to go up to them and put them down or something like that I just prefer a man with a haircut. As for African American women that wear relaxers that’s clearly a health issue.  and check here too. If you do chose to wear relaxers it’s your choice. I just like to inform people. As far as weaves it’s just a personal choice with me that I wouldn’t wear them.

Now that I’m finished with my rant. Check out these hairstyles that are perfect for the summer if you have long, short, or medium hair. Also, I tried my best to get different hair types in here(no relaxers though, HA). If you want to include links in your comments, please do.  Here they are:

Here are some videos that I’ve found that are fun to look at and you might want to even try out some of the styles.

These videos are of some very creative hair styles for Asian Males and Females. I’m not sure that maybe some folks would try some of them, but maybe you could modify the style to suit your taste.

Here’s a video with directions on how to do Bantu knots. I would suggest if your hair is straight or wavy you might want to use bobby pins, rubber bands, and styling cream.

This video is another instructional video that you could follow and get the look she is showing.  Any hair type could achieve this look even though it’s African American texture hair. It’s just simple buns, but you would have to have some length for these bun looks in the video.  However, there are some videos on how to do buns with short hair on youtube you could check out on your own. Click on the link for the video:

Guide to doing buns

Here’s the Bubble gum princess doing flat twist on her hair. Although, on this video this is straight hair anyone could achieve this look on various length hair.  Check it out ladies:

Here’s a video of various loc hairstyles.  If you have some imagination you could probably pull off some of these styles on different texture hair too. I must say though that on some of the styles in this video look really really tight( ouch). You of course don’t have to do them so tight, or maybe it’s just me and they aren’t tight you can see for yourself:

I hope everyone that checks out this blog can enjoy the videos and pictures or try the styles out. Also, I wanted to say some of the stuff I blogged about in the full figure swimsuits could apply to smaller body types too. Remember, have confidence with whatever swimsuit or hairstyle you have and smile; having swagger and being happy are two things you don’t have to pay for that can make anyone handsome or beautiful. A B C ya!

If you like photography as one of your hobbies then you might always be trying to find a way to improve your skills. Many people are looking for a way to turn their hobby into something that they can earn a living from.

In order to do this you need to make sure that your photography skills are professional and very advanced.

Manual

The biggest problem that most people have with photography is that they just leave their cameras in their automatic modes. This is fine for snaps of the family however if you want to become a professional then you need to learn how to use your camera in manual modes.

Your camera might be a very useful tool however professionals are much more skilled than the auto function on your camera. If you own a SLR camera then you have a wonderful tool at your disposal however you need to learn how to use it properly. If you use a camera in automatic modes then this will take reasonably good photos, however if you learn how to use it properly then it will be much more effective.

It can be very confusing to learn how to use your camera especially if you are using manual mode. Don’t get too worried if you don’t understand anything in the camera instructions because these are almost always far too technical. To get the most out of your camera you need to experiment and learn how every feature works. This will also make it much easier to remember how to use these functions when you need them.

Easy Tips

Most people are looking for a quick and easy way for them to improve their photography skills. People just aren’t interested in reinventing the wheel every time. There are however plenty of reasons that you would want to take your time and experiment yourself.

You might also want to consider signing up to a course at a college, or even on the internet. These are quite affordable and great value for money. They will teach you not only how to use your camera but also how to compose photos and create unique stunning pieces of art.

Camera

Although choosing a camera is very important it’s not the only thing that you need to do to improve your photography skills. Simply buying a top of the range camera won’t necessarily mean that your skills will improve unless you also put in lots of hard work. You need to learn how to use the camera properly to capture the very best photos. Even if you have a cheap camera you can still use it to take some great photos if you know what you are doing.

Learning about exposure is very important because it will help you to capture beautiful effects. Once you have chosen what you want to take a photo of you can then use exposure to get exactly what you want. You might want to take a photo of a car race which has everything in the background blurred, or a picture of a forest where only a single tree is in focus.

You just need to experiment with your camera and learn how to use it the best you possibly can. If you are using the cameras manual mode then you are able to create photos which are artistic and not just good snaps. You can use the exposure of your camera to use shadows, light, and focus to your advantage.

If you already love photography then you should find it really easy to learn how to use your camera better.

We spend millions of dollars every year on cosmetics and clothing to make ourselves look the best that we possibly can. Although we have been conditioned into believing that only thin people are beautiful there are plenty of things that normal sized and plus sized women can do to make themselves look beautiful.

Big women

Contrary to popular belief every woman is beautiful in their very own way. It doesn’t matter about their size in the slightest. There are lots of companies which specialize in producing products and clothes for plus sized women.

Most women who are big don’t believe that they should show any skin. They think that they should cover up because they are somehow ashamed of their bodies. This leaves many plus sized women wearing unflattering clothing. There is no reason why these plus sized women can’t wear some revealing clothing.

Many larger women have nice features which they should show off. Some women have stunning legs, and others have really nice cleavage.

Many other women think that they should cover up their arms because they think they are fat. However plus sized girls can actually get away with wearing sleeveless shirts and there’s nothing wrong with it. These sleeveless shirts can actually be very attractive if worn properly. If you feel too exposed then you might want to consider wearing a wrap or scarf around your arms to cover up slightly.

Using stripes to your advantage

Stripes can be a real problem for plus sized women however if used correctly then they can work wonders. If you are larger women then you should avoid horizontal stripes on clothes because they can make you look fatter. Vertical stripes however can work very well. Make sure you avoid using any stripes around your hips because they can make the problem appear worse than it actually is.

Colors

Any plus sized girl should avoid wearing white. Dark colors are much more flattering to bigger women. Wearing navy, black and charcoal are very flattering. You can use dark colors to make yourself look thinner. Wear a darker color on the bottom and a lighter color on top; this will rebalance your bodies. Don’t only wear dark colors however you should mix colors properly to ensure that your body is in proportion.

Prints

Although many women who are plus sized avoid bold prints they don’t actually have to. There are plenty of bold prints which suit plus sized women. Carefully choose prints that you like. It might take you some time but there’s no reason why you shouldn’t use prints.

Tight clothes

Lots of women think that they should stick to baggy clothing so that it doesn’t show off their figure. However this isn’t actually true. You should actually consider wearing figure hugging clothes so that you can show off your fuller figure.

There are plenty of men who like larger women; this is why you need to show off your figure.

The best fashion tip that anyone can give you is to make sure they use everything they have to their advantage. Study yourself and work out which characteristics they are most proud of. If you have great legs then wear clothes to flatter them, you can also do a similar thing if you have great cleavage.

Being a big woman is nothing to be ashamed of; you just need to make sure that you are attracting the right kinds of men.

Orgasm

Men can reach orgasm very easily and it’s almost like a mechanical process. Women on the other hand are much more complicated. In order for a woman to reach orgasm she needs to be emotionally and physically stimulated. She also needs to feel safe and secure which is why it can be difficult to make a woman excited.

Improving your sex life

There are many things that you can do to improve your sex life so that your partner longs for the next time that she gets the exciting feeling. There are many different ideas. You need to experiment and find methods which work for you.

The most important thing is to spice things up, don’t always do the same things and try to refrain from creating a schedule that’s set in stone. Sex is more exciting if you can make it different.

There are lots of different positions which you can use. Ask your partner if she would like to experiment and then find out which positions she likes the best. Some positions allow you to penetrate deeper which can create new and more exciting feelings. Just make sure that your partner is comfortable with everything that you suggest.

By spicing up your sex life you will be able to keep your partner interested and make her crave for the next time you have sex. Try having sex early in the morning when your partner least expects it. You can also have sex whenever you feel the urge instead of waiting for a set time.

There are plenty of kinky things that you can do to make sex come alive. You might want to try role playing, different positions, sex toys or even having sex in different places. This will make sex exciting and interesting and ensure that your partner doesn’t get bored. This excitement will be exhilarating and very exciting.

Giving her an orgasm

Most men want to be able to give their partners orgasms so that they can feel like real men. There are several things that you can do to make this more likely.

Learn about her body

A woman’s body is much more complicated than a man’s and you need to know what buttons to press. Get to learn the sensitive erogenous zones and how you can stimulate them. Also learn how to use your fingers and tongue to maximum effect.

Key areas to stimulate include ear lobes, clitoris, nipples, back of the knee and hips. Working out how to stimulate these will take some experimentation because every woman is different.

Control

Even if you know exactly how to make your woman crazy if you aren’t able to control your body then you will have problems. It’s important that you will be able to control your body so that you will be able to make sex last as long as possible.

Stimulating with your tongue and fingers is quite easy but without body control sex won’t last very long. There are many techniques which you can try to use to increase the control you have over your body.

An orgasm with full penetrative sex is much better than one with your tongue or finger because it is much more intimate. Make sure that you focus on methods to control your body.

Sex is very important and learning how to make sex last as long as possible can greatly improve your sex life. Take the first steps today to making your sex truly amazing.

Sex is a very important part of everyone’s relationship and it’s vital that you put all your effort into making it as good as possible. Make sure that you don’t only focus on making sex good for you but also making it better for your partner.

Premature ejaculation is a problem that affects almost every single man at least once in their lifetime. If you suffer from premature ejaculation then it can cause all sorts of problems for your relationship. Solving premature ejaculation problems can be really difficult, but it’s much easer if you know what you’re up to.

Satisfying your woman

If you want to make the most out of sex then you need to make sure that you satisfy your partner. If you leave your partner unsatisfied and wanting more then it’s much more likely that she will look outside of the relationship for fulfillment.

Many guys struggle to make their wives and girlfriend happy in bed. This is because it is very easy for a man to climax, however for a woman to have an orgasm it’s much more difficult. They need to put in lots of effort to find the best ways to excite their partners.

What guys don’t realize is that there are a few really simple ways that they can make sure that their partners are getting everything that they need and more.

Training

There are lots of things which can improve your sexual performance one of these is training. Sex should be seen as a form of exercise which you have to build up slowly. Spend time exercising and strengthening your little guy. Try stimulating yourself and making yourself last longer.

By doing this you will slowly be able to build up the time that you can last for. This will also make it much easier to control yourself when you’re having sex. It will also make your penis less sensitive which should help you to last longer without worrying about shooting too early.

Diet

You might not believe it but your diet can actually affect your sex life. If you eat the right foods and make sure that you are healthy then your body will be much stronger. This will make it much easier for your body to last longer when having sex. There are a number of different diets and foods that you should eat to improve your sexual strength and satisfy your woman.

Changing your diet is a small change but it can make a huge difference in your sex life. Make sure you eat a healthy balanced diet and if you suffer from any other medical conditions then it’s important that you ask your doctor for advice before changing your diet.

Distraction techniques

The most common reason for ejaculating too early is because you are nervous and very excited if you look away and distract yourself then you might find it much easier to stay longer. Take time to look away so that you can distract yourself. By distracting yourself you should be able to calm yourself down and last much longer in bed.

If you can last longer in bed then your partner will be very happy with your performance. The happier you make your partner the more content she will be with your relationship. Sex is important but don’t let it scare you or make you worried about how you will perform.

Stress is considered as completely normal and everyone gets stressed on a daily basis. Even school kids are stressed out because of their exams and homework. Many people don’t realize that they are stressed. It’s important to correctly identify stress because if it is not dealt with properly then it can cause physical and mental health problems. Stress is a contributing factor for many medical conditions.

Exercise
Exercise is very important to reduce stress. You should try to find some form of physical exercise that you enjoy. You might like to sign up to the gym or take up a sport that you enjoy. Try to do it a few times a week but this doesn’t have to be a very strenuous exercise. Physical exercise also improves your mental health which will also help you to reduce stress.

Plan
Everyone has a number of things that they must do in a day. If you struggle to remember them all then why not make yourself a list. Checking things off on your list can actually be very rewarding. If you don’t have a list then you could spend all day running around and feel like you haven’t done anything. However by having your list then you will know exactly what you have completed.

Yoga
There are many ways to alleviate stress; one of the most popular ways of doing this is yoga or meditation. If you can devote some time to this then you will be much less stressed to start off with. You need to give yourself plenty of time to relax so that you can get over the stress. Yoga actually helps to reduce your blood pressure which will improve your health.

In our hectic schedules it can be very difficult to set time aside for ourselves. This is something that we must do. Find something that you enjoy doing and set some time aside for you to do it. You might like to go to see a film, read a book, visit your mates, or cook food. Whatever it is you like doing you should do it because this will help to reduce stress.

Diet
The most important thing to avoid stress is to look at your diet. This is actually very surprising to many people however what you eat can affect the amount of energy that you have. If you are stressed then this can be very draining and so your body needs more nourishment.

Stress can also change the ay that your body uses the nutrients that are in the food you are eat. Vitamin C is very important when you are stressed. If there are low levels of this then it will get used up quickly which will cause you to get tired. The lack of vitamin C will also weaken your immune system when will leave you open to other diseases.

Stress has been shown to thicken blood in some people. Some people experience an increase in blood pressure when they are stressed. Stress should be avoided by everyone, especially elderly people because it can cause a heart attack or stroke.

Avoid tea, coffee and anything else with caffeine in because these can make your body more susceptible to stress. Many people think that these provide a way for them to relax but the opposite is actually true.

Spend time carefully considering what it is you are going to do to make money so that you can decide whether or not it will be profitable. It’s important that you find something that you enjoy doing.

Start a website or blog

One of the most popular ways of making some extra money is either laughing a blog or creating a website. These are seen as very easy ways to make some extra money because you can have fun doing it.

The idea is simple; you create content which people will find useful. You can then make money by putting adverts on your site. These adverts can be clicked by visitors which will help you to earn money.

This won’t make you rich unless you can run an extremely popular site. However it is a great place to start.

Business

You might also want to consider starting your own business. There are plenty of things that you can do. You might like to buy some flowers from a wholesaler and then sell them by the side of a road. This can actually make a surprising amount of money if you know what you are doing.

Thanks to the internet finding customers is easier than it’s ever been.

No matter how much money you earn you will still be able to use it to do all sorts of things.
